A Kentucky sublease agreement allows an original tenant (“sublessor”) to rent out the property to a new tenant (“sublessee” or “subtenant”). Sublessees are subject to the terms of the original lease. At the same time, the sublessor is responsible for ensuring that rent is paid on time and that the property is not damaged.
Kentucky tenants are allowed to sublet without explicitly obtaining permission from landlords. However, lease agreements may contain clauses that mandate landlord approval before subletting. Be sure to check your original lease before creating a sublease.
